Description of the invention: [Technical field to which the invention pertains] The present invention relates to a supporting device, and more particularly to a supporting device applied to an electronic device having a movable upper body. [Prior Art] With the rapid development of technology, the current electronic devices are mostly oriented towards the development of a multi-functional technology. Take the common business machines on the market as an example, because they can provide fax, photocopying, scanning and printing at the same time. Function, not only has a number of paper processing capabilities, but also takes up space from four locations to one location. In addition, the assembly steps are much simpler than in the past, and only a single network route, telephone line, and power cord are required to be used with a computer. Therefore, of course, it will become the first consideration for consumers to purchase products of the same nature. The MFP usually includes an automatic paper feeding device (ADF) and an image input device. When the internal engine of the MFP needs maintenance, the automatic paper feeding device and the 10 image input device are usually required. Open it. In the prior art, a hinge (Hinge) or a linkage mechanism is installed at a position where the image input device is coupled to the multifunction server. However, since the automatic paper feeding device and the image input device all have a considerable degree of weight, the hinge or the link mechanism often cannot smoothly support the automatic paper feeding device and the image input device, so that the automatic paper feeding device and the image input device are enabled. Devices often fail to pay attention to, and even endanger the safety of maintenance personnel. Please refer to the first figure, which is a schematic diagram of a support device of a conventional multifunction machine. As shown in the first figure, the supporting device provided between the main body 101 9 200806154 and the lower body 102 of the multifunction printer includes a hinge member 11, a spring 12, an upper cover 13 and a lower cover 14, wherein the spring The 12-series collar is outside the hinge member 11, and one end of the hinge member 11 is fixed to the upper cover 13 and the other end is fixed to the lower cover 14. When the main body 101 is opened upward or closed downward, the hinge member 11 of the supporting device is extended or shortened in the same length as the spring 12 to use the hinge at an angle of opening or closing of the upper body 101. The component Π and the spring 12 have an elastic property to change their length while generating a resistive torque to support the weight of the body 101 above the MFP. In order to match the size of the MFP, it is necessary to reduce the volume and area occupied by the supporting device as much as possible, which also affects the length and size of the hinge member 11 and the spring 12, thereby causing the resistance to the torsion. Restricted to meet actual needs. Once the weight of the upper body 101 reaches a certain limit, especially the equipment such as the automatic paper feeding device (ADF) and the image input device (Image Input Device), the support device thus designed can no longer load its weight, and often suddenly This causes the upper body 1〇1 to fall down completely, not only has a strong impact force on the internal electronic components, but also a considerable degree of safety for maintenance personnel. Therefore, in order to ensure the smoothness of the upper body of the electronic device during the opening and closing process, it is necessary to develop a supporting device that solves the above various disadvantages and applies various weights to meet the actual needs of today. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a support device that can smoothly support the upper body of the electronic device 200806154 to solve the problem that the supported upper body is insufficient in the process of opening or closing the upper body of the electronic device. Or the upper body weight is too heavy, and the drop of the moment is falling down.

In this _, the opening or closing of the fiscal _ resistance to torque generation ^ and the second resistance to the torque generating components is a state of mutual exclusion. As described above, the first-resistance torsion generating member is in a tight state only when the shutter is closed, and the second resisting torque generating member provides the resisting torque. At the time of opening, the second resisting torsion generating element is called at (5), and at this time, the first-resistance torsion generating element is raised by the % careful design, so that the first and second resisting torsion forces are different, and the system is also the same as the 2008 200806154 system. Two different sizes of resistive torque are available. It also does not need to be very large when opening. = Resist the torsion. This allows the user to easily open the upper body.

Wherein the first resisting torque generating member and the second resisting torque generating member 32 are alternately laminated, and one of the first resisting torque generating member 31 and the second resisting torque generating member Μ is fixed to the bearing of the rotating member 21. The other is fixed to the support frame 28. Taking the first resistive torsion generating element 31 fixed to the square rotating element 21 as an example, it is not difficult to imagine that when the rotating element 21 is rotated in the clockwise direction, the first resisting torsion generating element 31 also rotates in the same direction as the rotating element. At this time, since the first resisting torsion generating member '"μ and the second resisting torsion generating member 32 are friction plates, the first resisting torsion force generates the first resisting torque generated by the member 31, that is, the friction force, and The second resisting torsion force generated by the torque generating member 32 is balanced, so that the strong torque generated by the weight load of the upper body 201 is turned on or off, and the smooth upper body is of course as in the previous embodiment. The weight of 201. Since the rotating member 21 generates different rotation directions when the upper body is opened or closed, the direction and magnitude of the axial component force generated by the upper body are different. By virtue of the difference in the axial component forces caused by the direction of rotation, the friction lining system can produce different magnitudes of frictional resistance.
